I've tried to undervolt my 5090 does this look right?

Your target frequency seems quite high, almost 3000Mhz. The boost algorithm will sort it out anyway. Which guide did you follow?

Hi mate thanks for the reply, I followed this guide
but didn't fully understand it, could I ask what you mean by target freq high? I just can't seem to grasp this all.

My GOAL in my mind was to undervolt the card whilst keeping or even INCREASING a bit the clock speeds (not that I need to but being undervolted why not see how far it can go with LESS voltage?) my in game boost is about 2950 at the mo - obviously it keeps changing but that seems to be about the average, I saw it hit 2970

I may be entirely not understanding all this sorry

Cheers.
Have a look at this video
and this thread on the same topic https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1jaz2yq/5090fe_undervolt_guide_better_than_stock_at_450w/

Like some in the thread I've gone with a more conservative 2800mHz at 0.9mV. Initially I had a more aggressive undervolt, but dialled it back for Borderlands 4 which was crashing constantly.

Watched this video. He enables Voltage Control and Monitoring which you should not need to do at all for a simple undervolt using the curve editor.

Also, he raises the ENTIRE curve which you do not want to do unless you want higher closk in idle and low usage scenarios. Ideally you only want to raise and flatten the curve after your selected voltage point (Normally 900mv or thereabouts)

The video linked in the Reddit post shows you the strategy where you leave the idle/low usage curve alone.
